Ya know, stick a knitting needle up into my eyeball to the hilt and stir vigorously.

4. It seems that the president is often worried more about getting shit done than vanity.

5. LOL.
It is very dusty over there. I am surprised not more people are walking around covered in dust. I wonder if he even noticed? He has a lot on his plate right now.

7. I guess Reggie didn't go on this trip...bet he's got a brush in that bag he always carries
when he's on the road with Obama.

But Obama looks pretty serious in these shots...seeing him there makes me relate even more strongly to him...he's really doing his job...

12. He looks like it actually centers him doesn't it?
Edited on Sun Mar-28-10 01:37 PM by lunatica
As if she were giving him an aura fluff.

I give aura fluffs when my workmates are feeling down. It invariably makes them laugh and they feel better instantly and so does everyone else because they remember me giving them one. Sometimes I overhear one telling someone that they need one of my aura fluffs. Anyone who says aura fluffs don't work simply has never had their aura fluffed.

He can't be trusted to eat beignet without Michelle in attendance.

18. Perhaps it's just me...
...but he seems a little "lost" when she's not around. On basic stuff like keeping his suit clean, I imagine Michelle, cleaning him up and wiping smudges off his face as he walks out the door in the morning.

21. Or just making him look good
That's the mom thing. Always having to straighten everyone's stuff so they look presentable.

30. Next time you're in a dusty locale, Barack, BEIGE suit
I've seen him wearing one before, though it's been awhile. Maybe it's time to bust it out again.

31. I read on twitter earlier that the helicopter that took them there landed on a dirt strip and
sent up a ton of dust from its blades so I believe that is where the dust came from - mystery solved. Twitter is so damn useful. ;)

But seriously, the dirt on his clothes makes him look like a human being. Cool pics!
